Sharon has at most $25 to spend on her sister's birthday gift. She already bought a knitting machine for her, which cost $14.99.
She would also like to get her sister some skeins of yarn to go with it. Each skein costs $2.75. Write an inequality to represent this problem. Use y to represent the number of skeins of yarn. What is the most number of skeins Sharon can afford to buy? Justify your answer in two or more complete sentences.
Since after the knitting machine, she is only left with approximately $10 that leaves her able to get 3 skeins of yard with change left over. Since 3 skeins would cost 8.25, that would only leave Sharon with $1.75. Which would not be enough to buy another skein
